Topic: New to the IceShanty (Read 2049 times)

Hey Guys, My name is Chris Sinclair, I am 16 years old from Nova Scotia, Canada. I am an avid fly fisherman, fly tier and I also LOVE to ice fish. I Take videos of my fishing adventures and publish them on the internet. But that's beside the point, this is a ice fishing site right?! Lets talk about ICE FISHING!

I always catch and release my fish because the lakes I fish have a lot of pressure and a lot of people keeping their Rainbows. (I don't have a problem with that, but these are my views) It doesn't really matter because there stocked pretty heavily, but thats one more fish for a child to catch and put a smile on his/her face.

During the Ice fishing season my biggest fish hooked to date was a approximate 6 pound brown trout that I had halfway out of the hole when the 6 pound Trilene broke,, I was going to release it anyways but a picture ain't to bad to go along with the rush of hooking that size fish on an UL Combo.

welcome to the site, I'm sure you'll enjoy it here. There are lots of nice people who are very knowledgible and willing to help. I must commend you on your views, that is a very admirable and mature way of looking at things. If you get time please post a link to your videos, I'd like to watch them.

My open water fly fishing videos are better than my ice fishing videos... by the way I left out I used to you spinning gear, now Im pretty much dedicated to fly fishing i enjoy it alot more and I am sponsored by a fly shop so that is a bonusI'm going to work on my filming skills on the ice this year. I do not wan't to post my link as I do not want to advertise myself.

My youtube username is MegaTroutFishing if you guys wanna take a gander, have at it,

and I am apart of a few fly fishing forums , so i kinda know my way around these sort of things haha
